Anxiety is the most commonly experienced mental illness in our country, and women are twice as likely to suffer from an anxiety disorder as men. The term anxiety disorder refers to prolonged or extreme fear or worry, and includes, but is not limited to: generalized anxiety disorder, panic attacks, social anxiety, and specific phobias. Anxiety is often experienced as overwhelming fear accompanied by physical symptoms such as a pounding heart, sweating, and rapid breathing.

Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
Stress is an undeniable and unavoidable part of life. So trying to avoid stressful situations entirely is not a good solution. But what we can do is learn to manage stress effectively. This can involve learning some of the many stress management techniques, of course, but it also needs to involve a shift in what we could call mental attitude, approach, or even how we habitually tend to perceive reality. When I work with people who are often stressed, I am very interested in helping them to understand how their habits of perceiving reality contribute to their feelings of stress and overwhelm. Once this is understood, stress management becomes much easier.
